Target Description

The role of pyridine nucleotides (NAD/NADH) metabolism in health is of continual and increased interest. A growing amount of evidence supports the fact that NAD metabolism regulates important biological effect including life span. NAD, through poly-ADP-ribosyl polymerase (PARP), mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase (ARTs) and recently characterized sirtuin enzymes, exerts potential biological effects. These enzymes modify proteins to regulate their function via ADP-ribosylation or deacetylation. These enzymes are involved in several pathways including apoptosis, DNA repair, senescence and endocrine signaling, which suggests that either the enzymes or NAD could be an important therapeutical target. The Fluoro NAD/NADH detection kit utilizes a non-fluorescent detection reagent, which is reduced in the presence NADH to produce its fluorescent analog and NAD. NAD is further converted to NADH via an enzyme-coupled reaction. The enzyme reaction specifically reacts with NAD/NADH and not with NADP/NADPH. The kit is suitable for applications such as: - Detection of NAD/NADH activity in cells or tissue extracts. - Detection of NAD/NADH levels in apoptosis, metabolism, proliferation, DNA repair, senescence, endocrine signaling and life span. - NAD/NADH detection in bacterial, fungal and plant cells.
